Calling all Gen Z’ers! I’ve got some INCREDIBLE news for you. You better hold onto your hats.
One of the greatest kids’ shows in history, Victorious, is officially getting a spinoff series. It’s going to be produced by Nickelodeon, and it’s in “fast-track development,” according to Deadline.
The project is tentatively called Hollywood Arts, which, if you know anything at ALL, is the name of the arts high school the Victorious characters attend. So I have a sneeeeeaking suspicion we’re gonna see those gloriously unique lockers again.
And before I spill what it’ll be about, let me get this out of the way: Dan Schneider is not part of the project (phew). The lead writers and executive producers include Jake Farrow, who wrote and produced Victorious and Sam & Cat — AND he voiced the icon, Rex Powers.
So now, the most important part. What the heck will it be about?!?! Two words: TRINA. VEGA. The show is centred around the queen herself. All hail!!
Of course, that means one thing: Daniella Monet will reprise her role as Trina and star in the show (!!!!). Lucky for us, we also got a plot description for the series, which gives us more than a little hint as to what Trina is up to nowadays.
“Hollywood Arts follows Trina returning to her old stomping grounds as the newest teacher at Hollywood’s most elite performing arts school,” Deadline reports. Yep, we’re gonna see Trina as a teacher at Hollywood Arts. I did NOT think I’d ever write that sentence.
Unfortunately, no other cast members have been confirmed *yet* — but if I had to guess, we MIGHT see a cameo from Victoria Justice if we’re lucky. They’re on-screen sisters and friends IRL, after all!
Let’s all cross our fingers for cameos from Liz Gillies (Jade), Matt Bennett (Robbie), Leon Thomas III (Andre), Avan Jogia (Beck), and even Oscar-nominated LEGEND Ariana Grande. But I think Matt is the most likely out of that bunch, since he’s arguably the most connected to his Victorious roots.
Anyway, I’ll let you know if we get any new jaw-dropping details — like, maybe we’ll get confirmation of a “Chicago” reprise, which would make me sob with joy.
But until then, can we please freak out about this together? TRINA VEGA IS COMING TO SAVE 2025!!! I’m inviting you to fangirl with me in the comments below.
